That could be considered anything from wreckless endangerment to manslaughter if the infection caused death. In the 80's it was more likely the perpetrator would die before the victim. I do remember a case of a dentist that wasn't sterilizing his tools between patients and actually contaminating his tools. He did die before he could be charged as I recall. Also there was a case of an African fellow that knew he was infected and went ahead and had unprotected relations with several women who were unaware of his status also resulting in spread of the infection.
Nowadays contracting HIV means a lifetime of medication and being 99.9% virus free provided the medication is available always. Not a death sentence but a lifetime shackle. Freddy Mercury would have lived if he had contracted AIDS a year later.

It also ties back to an earlier post where I mentioned that my governor issued a decree that those who she thinks she controls, police, fire, first responders, teachers, health care workers, must be vaccinated within the next few weeks or be fired from their jobs even if they have natural immunity. Lawsuits are flying. |

Others may actually believe at least some of the things they argue. But discussions with them are reminiscent of the life of the third dog in a sled team. The scenery never changes. They have, do, and will keep pounding the same drum. You can deflate their specious arguments all you like, but they are not susceptible to persuasion. Neither you, nor I, will be able to save them. I understand a desire to venture outside one's own echo chamber. I too, think that can be useful. But after a time it falls back to self flagellation and wearing hair shirts. There must be a limit to the sins we should have to atone for. I waste far, far too much time here. And, it is just that - wasted time. I'm making a resolution to start reading this thread far less and useful things more. I'm also going to go back and teach myself the college algebra, trig, and integral cal I bluffed my way through as an undergrad as a prelude to making the switch from STATA and learning to use "R." Life really is too short, my friend.

Trig is super fun and cool. Dr. Nasir Ahmed was the head of engineering when I studied at UNM. Few people have changed the world as much as he with his contributions to applied mathematics. We all draw a straight line to him many times daily.

Apparently, the whiners have friends in high places. Once again, adman or whoever it is has yanked another of my posts. No name calling and little or no politics. Just logical argument. Gotta love it, Boyz.
OK fellas - you win. I'll ply my wares elsewhere - among the literati.

honestly, dealing with difficult/obtuse people in a safe forum setting has done a lot to translate to dealing with similarly-minded people in real life for me at work. i still don't like it, but it's easier to compartmentalize them. it used to bother me more dealing with them. Quote:
if one of the mods were purging, i really expected them to pull my post with saddam hussein in it at the same time... this is the internet. don't take it so seriously. life and death exists outside the interweb. none of us are getting sick from each other in here.

You may consider adapting the 10% rule that I buy into: "10% of the people are just fucked up, so, I pay them no nevermind" Works for me - |

In that case, I've been leaning towards the 90% rule...
